Excellent location. Service was bad

Everything is excellent here, highly recommended for nature loving travellers to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding and the good services provided by the hotel.

A really nice resort with lovely staff, in a stunning location.

Love this place very nice stuff and awesome service .Next time I would stay for a few more days because this hotel have A lot of stuff to do . Beautiful view !

This is an excellent hotel for a getaway. Extremely helpful staff that goes all the way to ensure you have a pleasant stay. They will organize a car to pick you when you are unable to get a cab, prepare breakfast before the restaurant is open, help you on photo shooting.

The location is great. The hotel is very clean and hospitable.

The best hotel I've ever stayed in, the room is so clean with good amenities. Staffs are so friendly and the breakfast was satisfactory because it had a limited choice of western food. The view is amazing from the restaurant. And the hotel has two lovely dogs and a chubby cat. If you are looking for a place to have a peaceful vacation in Yangshuo, you shall definitely choose Zen Garden Resort. I will definitely come there again.

Good location and view. Good breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner. Free pick up service.

I travel internationally 50% of the year and stay up to 40 hotels in that time. This was by far the most amazing hotel stay--calm, quiet, incredible views and western-style hospitality and cleanliness standards. If you go to Guilin--stay here.

El hotel tiene una muy buena ubicación. Las instalaciones son nuevas (O muy recientes), las habitaciones son cómodas y espaciosas, adicionalmente la cama está excelente. El personal da un extraordinario servicio, siempre muy atentos. El restaurante y las comidas del lugar tienen muy buen sazón, bastante recomendable.

Short getaway to Yangshuo for a mini vacation. Prior to our arrival, the staff were very accommodating in assisting us in figuring out arrival logistics to the hotel. The hotel is modern, clean, and very beautiful. They have many amenities, including self-serve free laundry, and a great rooftop patio and meditation room. The hotel restaurant also serves a great variety of food, and it was very tasty. The staff were incredibly helpful and gracious - Lina and Wendy were amazing! Our room was comfortable, clean and well equipped with the basics. We had a great view of the karsts. The free scooter and bicycle rentals provided was a great bonus as well. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

We actually didn't end up staying - it was a fair way out of town, the pool was half empty, and the surrounds were a mixture of building sites. Although the staff were genuinely lovely, we didn't want to stay there so stayed somewhere else, despite having paid in full.

Very nice and clean. Don’t expect a luxury hotel/ spa. But is in good and Western friendly. Staff helped us to solve everything. Their English is good enough to explain and organise things for us. Make sure to book a mountain view room. You can also rent electric bikes which makes the experience even better

The staff working here are the kindest we’ve ever met. They truly make the experience unique. The rooms are spacious with beautiful artistic furniture. The location is the best spot in Yangshuo. We’re definitely coming back here, highly recommended for everyone!

This is the perfect place to go and relax and just breathe. The grounds and view are gorgeous, and it's away from the bustling Yangshuo backpacker city area so you feel like you're in an oasis. The rooms also are gorgeous and clearly a focus on design. Lots of nice touches like plush slippers and robes. The staff wants to do all they can to make your stay fantastic. They will bend over backwards to try and help you. The downside is that only Wendy speaks English, so it is not always easy to communicate your needs or desires. The food in the restaurant isn't great, although other options in the area are equally uninspiring. We went to the very fancy Alila restaurant for a meal and were also disappointed there. Most disappointingly, the pool was not filled during our stay so we could not swim! While it was the beginning of Spring so I understand perhaps it wasn't filled during winter, the temperature was in the 70s when we arrived and we'd been really looking forward to a swim which wasn't possible. A hotel with a pool was one of our criteria when booking, so not being able to swim was a huge letdown. Overall, this seems like a hotel that has huge potential, but is still finding it's groove for international travelers. If you speak Mandarin you'll be fine.

We had a large suite at the price of a premium room. Extremely cultured and tasteful interior with fantastic view of the unique mountains from the large balcony outside of the bedroom and tea room.

Perfect stay for our family. Nice and helpfull staff, nice area and beautiful scenery.

What a wonderful hotel in Yangshuo (out of the town in the River Park). Quiet, beautifully appointed, and with wonderful views across small farms to spectacular limestone peaks. The reception staff were very welcoming, attentive and helpful throughout our stay. The room was beautiful, the restaurant food excellent (although not all vegetarian as the website claimed), and the outdoor swimming pool a dream. Bikes are available for a small hire fee and, when I lost the key to the bike lock at the Moon Hill Reserve, hotel staff came and picked me up. They were also very happy to drop us into Yangshuo town for tour pickups. If we ever return to Yangshuo, this is where we would stay. We could not recommend it more highly.
